Yarmuth Statement on Senate Decision to Move Forward on Trumpcare

Jul 25, 2017

Washington, D.C.—Kentucky Congressman John Yarmuth, Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee, issued the following statement on the decision by Republican U.S. Senators to move forward on their Trumpcare legislation:

“Republican Senators just proved that they care more about political victories than the health of American families. They have voted to put at risk the health coverage of more than 20 million Americans, protections for pre-existing conditions, and access to affordable, quality coverage for all. Republican Senators still have a chance to put their constituents first by voting against final passage of Trumpcare, and for the sake of millions I hope they do."
